La Forbice

After mooring on rock at about 5 m, divers swim seaward past two aligned boulders that point the way to a much larger block. Its far side hides a small cave where Parapandalus shrimps live, with fan mussels outside. The circuit around the boulder turns up small groupers, moray eels, octopus, starfish and nudibranchs. At night the site becomes even more striking, as many Alicia mirabilis anemones open in the torch light. The maximum depth is 21 m.
